With the down-to-earth style and far-ranging knowledge that have made him Americas favorite stargazing instructor, Mike Lynch guides amateur and expert alike through the wonders of Georgias night sky. Whether watching the sky from a backyard lawn chair or manning a high-powered telescope, Georgia stargazers of all levels will learn how and when to identify the major constellations at their states latitude. With chapters on the origins and movements of stars, the mythology of constellations, the phases of the moon, the planets, and even buying a telescope, this book also serves as an accessible and in-depth beginners guide to the night sky. It includes 12 monthly star maps for Georgia skies, 21 constellation diagrams, a local resources guide, a list of the brightest stars in the state, and more than 80 beautiful color photographs of the heavens.
Master stargazing instructor and author Mike Lynch has led his popular community stargazing classes for over 30 years and has instructed thousands of would-be backyard astronomers (and maybe a few would-be professional astronomers)! He also writes a weekly astronomy column for the ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS and numerous other newspapers. In his day job, Mike is a broadcast meteorologist for WCCO Radio. He lives in Eagan, Minnesota.
